PRESS REVIEW

Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Anbaa quoted on Tuesday Future Movement Secretary General Ahmad Hariri as dismissing reports on leaks related to the Special Tribunal for Lebanon’s (STL) pending indictment, saying that nobody has information on the pending charges.

Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said in July that that Prime Minister Saad Hariri told him that the STL—which was formed to probe the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri—would indict Hezbollah members.

In order to find the truth, the STL should not be politicized, Ahmad Hariri said.

“Why did Hezbollah accuse Israel now?” Hariri asked.

Nasrallah presented on Monday alleged evidence—including footage he said came from Israeli Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) monitoring former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri and a confession from a suspected Israeli spy—in an aim to implicate Tel Aviv in the Hariri assassination.

On 13 December 2005 the Government of the Lebanese Republic requested the UN to establish a tribunal of an international character to try all those who are alleged responsible for the attack of 14 february 2005 that killed the former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafiq Hariri and 22 others. The United Nations and the Lebanese Republic consequently negotiated an agreement on the establishment of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon.
